The Ten-Item Personality Inventory (TIPI) is a validated brief instrument measuring the five-factor model (FFM) personality dimensions, developed for instances where more comprehensive FFM instruments are impractical to use. The TIPI has been translated into several languages, but psychometric properties of the Norwegian version (N-TIPI) have not been systematically explored. This study aimed to explore the psychometric properties of the N-TIPI, in terms of internal consistency and structural validity. In a cross-sectional study, responses on the N-TIPI were collected from 5,009 Norwegian master graduates. Descriptive statistics for the subscales and correlations between subscales were calculated. Internal consistency was assessed with inter-item correlations, Cronbach's α and Spearman-Brown coefficients. Structural validity was explored with principal component analysis, parallel analysis, and visual scree plot inspection. Results for the N-TIPI were compared with those previously reported for the original TIPI as well as the German, French, Spanish, and Portuguese versions. Compared with the original and non-English versions of TIPI, results for N-TIPI showed comparable subscale rank order of means, standard deviations, and pattern of correlations between subscales, as well as inter-item correlations and Cronbach's α. The 10 N-TIPI items were adequately reduced to five components, theoretically corresponding with the FFM personality domains. The N-TIPI demonstrated acceptable internal consistency and satisfactory structural validity. Although further research is warranted, the instrument stands out as feasible when it is essential to minimize participants' response burden in studies that aim to explore personality as one among several concepts or utilize personality traits as covariates.
十项人格量表（TIPI）是一种经过验证的简短工具，用于测量五因素模型（FFM）人格维度，专为在使用更全面的FFM工具不切实际的情况下而开发。TIPI已被翻译成多种语言，但挪威语版本（N-TIPI）的心理测量特性尚未得到系统探索。本研究旨在从内部一致性和结构效度方面探索N-TIPI的心理测量特性。在一项横断面研究中，收集了5009名挪威硕士毕业生对N-TIPI的回答。计算了各分量表的描述性统计数据以及分量表之间的相关性。通过项目间相关性、克朗巴哈α系数和斯皮尔曼-布朗系数评估内部一致性。通过主成分分析、平行分析和直观碎石图检验探索结构效度。将N-TIPI的结果与先前报告的原始TIPI以及德语、法语、西班牙语和葡萄牙语版本的结果进行了比较。与TIPI的原始版本和非英语版本相比，N-TIPI的结果在分量表均值的排序、标准差、分量表之间的相关模式以及项目间相关性和克朗巴哈α系数方面具有可比性。N-TIPI的10个项目被充分简化为五个成分，理论上与FFM人格领域相对应。N-TIPI表现出可接受的内部一致性和令人满意的结构效度。尽管有必要进行进一步研究，但在旨在将人格作为几个概念之一进行探索或利用人格特质作为协变量的研究中，当必须尽量减轻参与者的回答负担时，该工具显得可行。
